LuciPac LS is a kit for testing cleanliness levels mainly for canalicular objects using bioluminescence techniques using firefly luciferase developed with Kikkoman's unique biotechnology.
This kit contains long stem swabs suitable for swabbing inside of the channels of medical endoscopes and of filling nozzles in beverage industry, which have not been accessible by LuciPac Pen and/or other ATP swab test kits.
Size of the long stem swab: Cotton bud 2.8mm Ø / 3.2mm Ø and stem length 400 mm
Firefly luciferase emits light in the presence of ATP and luciferin. The AMP produced from this reaction is converted back into ATP using PPDK to enable a high but stable amount of luminescence to be obtained.
ATP is a source of energy necessary for various forms of life that is present in organic residues, such as microorganisms, food residue, and biological substances that originate from other living organisms. This method allows you to measure and detect organic.

This kit can be used to test cleanliness levels using a swab test.
Do not use this device for any purpose other than what it was designed for as a tester of cleanliness levels.

Please be aware that this kit cannot be used to test or measure for counts of viable bacteria or more specific types of pathogenic bacteria.
This kit is used to indicate cleanliness levels in food production centers and medical treatment facilities.

This kit shall not provide any guarantee that a given test environment is free of bacterial contamination.

This kit cannot be used to test food or food products directly. This kit is not a medical device.
